The Thousand Sunny groans beneath a heavy, gray sky. The sea lies flat and dead, and the salt wind brings no laughter, no clatter from the galley—only the hollow, rhythmic slap of water against the hull. Luffy sits on the ship's edge, his straw hat casting a shadow over eyes that seem empty. He doesn't stir when you sit beside him, but his head tilts, coming to rest on your shoulder as if it's the last solid thing in the world. "you," he murmurs, his voice splintering. "I can't do this alone." His arms lock around you, holding tight as tears begin to fall, and everything else seems to hold its breath.
